SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition-on-View\, \"Persistent Pasts: The Bicentennial Campus as Archive\"
DESCRIPTION:Combining historical research and analysis from the students in Sarah Rovang’s “The Curated Campus” graduate seminar and the design output of Steven Mankouche’s “What If” Options Studio\, Persistent Pasts reflects on the University of Michigan’s campus as a repository of memory. As UM celebrates its Bicentennial year\, this exhibition asks how past traditions\, tensions\, and technologies have left material or cultural traces on campus space today. By laying bare rarely examined aspects of the historical university alongside radical designs for an unrealized present\, Persistent Pasts asks us to question entrenched conceptions of what UM should and could be\, architecturally and institutionally. This exhibition is supported in part by a Bicentennial Activity Grant\, co-authored by Claire Zimmerman and Sarah Rovang. \n\nThis exhibition will be on view in the Taubman College Gallery through May 19. The college gallery is open Monday - Friday\, 9am - 5pm. \n\nThere will be an presentation and panel on Friday\, April 7 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by a reception in the college gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mathematical Biology
DESCRIPTION:Enhancers are small regulatory pieces of DNA that control the activity of genes\, which eventually determine cellular fates during the development of multicellular organisms. They need to measure the concentrations of various input effector molecules\, called transcription factors\, and then act over often very long distances along the DNA in order to activate a distantly located gene. In this talk I will present my laboratory's progress on two fundamental physical properties of these enhancers: 1. How do enhancers operate at long distances to instruct gene activity? 2. How do enhancers decode the information of the input transcription factors and then transduce it into a precise output?  We use a combination of genome editing\, live imaging and statistical mechanics techniques to address these questions in the developing fly embryo. Speaker(s): Thomas Gregor (Princeton University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Women's Studies Department Honors Thesis Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Reception to follow.\n\nKiri Alvarado\nListening to Medieval Voices: Women\, Religion\, and Healing in the Paston and Lisle Letters\n\nThe voices of medieval women are difficult to recover because of the lack of sources written by them. The few letter collections that survive offer one glimpse of the experiences of elite women. In this thesis\, I argue that these letter collections show us that women connected healthcare with their religious beliefs\, and women were responsible for using both to protect and maintain their families. By using the Paston family letters of the fifteenth century and the Lisle family letters of the sixteenth\, I examine how female letter writers discussed health\, responded to sickness and death\, provided advice\, and created community around health and religion. I show that medieval women were responsible for caring for their families medically and women’s medical care was as much a familial affair as it was a community one. Childbirth particularly drew women together as they supported each other during labor\, and afterwards. Lastly\, this thesis examines how religion was indispensable to medieval understanding of health\, and medieval women interacted with religion to further fulfill their roles as caretakers.  Thesis advisor: Katherine French.\n\nE Karin Cadoux\nAnimating Injury: Trauma Rite as Personal Exhibition and Public Exposition\nWeaving genres of social theory\, art critique\, poetry\, and performance\, \n\nThis thesis explores E Karin Cadoux’s 2016 public performance work Trauma Rite in order to investigate lived survivorship and challenge the architecture of public affect. Trauma Rite was an eight hour endurance piece in which Cadoux discloses their identity as a survivor of rape\, attempts to clean their body\, and scrubs their skin raw\, repeatedly performing a trauma cycle of recognition\, redemption\, and relapse. Audience culture was recorded through documentation of the intersection of North University and State St\, in Ann Arbor\, MI\, between the hours of 9 AM and 5 PM\, and an online forum that passersby could anonymously interact with\, logging their responses to Trauma Rite. Cadoux writes on internal and external impacts of giving voice to the survivor body in the public\, through their own performance and impactful performed works on gendered violence and psychic injury by other artists. In sections surrounding their address to the audience\, audience complicity\, and onlooker space-making\, Cadoux posits that performance surrounding sexual violence has the capacity to undermine frameworks of public immobility and survivor isolation\, unveiling compassionate counterpublics and commons.  Thesis advisor: Candace Moore.\n \nKatrina Hamann \nCatholic on the Margins: Faith\, Ambivalence\, and LGBQ Community in a West Michigan Lambda Catholics Group\n\nDespite the Catholic Church’s condemnation of “homosexual acts” as “gravely immoral\,” a definite presence of advocacy groups focuses specifically on the affirmation of Lesbian\, Gay\, Bisexual\, and Transgender (LGBT) Catholics. One such group is the Lambda Catholics chapter located in Kalamazoo\, Michigan. Lambda has been instrumental in creating a positive and affirming environment for LGBTQ Catholics since the early 1990s. Inspired by my own coming out experience and my relationship with the Catholicism in which I was raised\, this thesis considers the role faith has played in the lives of non-heterosexual Catholic women. Four women\, all of whom have a connection to Kalamazoo Lambda Catholics or the parish in which it is located\, were interviewed about their experiences growing up in the Catholic faith\, its influence (or lack thereof) on their understandings of their sexualities\, and their current relationships with the faith. For further perspective I also interviewed a Catholic priest who supports Lambda’s mission. The women and the priest all articulated concerns with the Church’s discriminatory attitude towards sexuality and women. In addition\, a common theme emerged within each woman’s story that indicated a refusal to adhere to the institutional expectations espoused by the Church. Although the women identified themselves as definitively Catholic\, they interpreted the faith in a way that allowed them to both embrace and question Catholicism.  Thesis advisor: Dean Hubbs.\n\nAnouk Versavel\nEmpowerment in Revolutionary Contexts: Women’s Experiences in Poland and Nicaragua\n\nHow do women who become lifelong political activists understand their empowerment in the context of revolution? Through qualitative analyses of interviews from the Global Feminisms Project sites in Poland and Nicaragua\, I identified various paths to empowerment in the context of revolutionary social change. I used the lenses of intergroup conflict\, violence\, and feminism to critically examine two movements aimed at social change\, while highlighting the connections between empowerment theory and practice\, as well as between feminism and social movement theory. Using grounded theory coding of the life narratives of women who participated in Poland’s non-violent Solidarity movement and in Nicaragua’s violent Sandinista movement\, I found that common themes (education\, belief in a cause\, law\, leadership\, literature\, political networks\, disempowering experiences\, and role models) emerged in women’s accounts of their empowerment and in turn shape their perspective on and commitment to social change. Some of these structures and experiences were described as sources of empowerment and some as results of empowerment. Most importantly\, for each woman there were dynamic connections between them that defined pathways they followed as they changed the power relations in their own lives\, and worked for broader changes in their communities and countries. Thesis advisor: Abby Stewart.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): The impact of social networks on charitable giving
DESCRIPTION:\"The impact of social networks on charitable giving\"\n\nAbstract\nPrevious research demonstrates the impact of the behavior of others in one’s social network on a variety of individual decisions\, including vaccination decisions (Rao\, Mobius and Rosenblat 2007)\, consumer purchasing (Mobius\, Niehaus\, Rosenblat 2011)\, investment decisions (Duflo and Saez\, 2002\, 2003)\, and government aid (Bertrand and Luttmer 2000). This paper identifies the impact of social networks on charitable giving. A series of surveys find a correlation between the number of an individual’s friends and family who listen to a public radio station and an individual’s contribution\, but no effect of the absolute size of one’s social network. A field experiment randomly assigns perceived size of listening network\, and thus establishes causal evidence for the correlational relationship.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Complex Analysis\, Dynamics and Geometry
DESCRIPTION:A strongly convex (or \"strongly C-convex\") real hypersurface in C^n (or in complex projective space) inherits both the standard CR structure and a secondary \"projective dual\" structure.  Thus our hypersurface comes equipped with two spaces of CR functions and the question arises as to how they interact.\n\nThis talk will go over two types of results on this general topic.  (Some of the results to be discussed are from recent work with Dusty Grundmeier.) Speaker(s): David Barrett (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry & Physics
DESCRIPTION:Extremal transition is a certain kind of contract-deform surgery\, which plays a key role in the classification of Calabi-Yau 3-folds. The study of how Gromov-Witten invariants change under this surgery\, pioneered by A. Li and Y. Ruan\, has been a long-standing goal in mirror symmetry. In this talk\, I will present a local model of cubic extremal transition and then propose a new correspondence in terms of quantum D-module. We will show that the quantum D-module of one side may be recovered\, up to gauge equivalence and analytic continuation\, as a limit of the quantum D-module of the other side when restricted to certain monodromy invariant subspace. The first hour will be devoted to background and a historical account of this problem. In the second hour\, I will explain some ideas involved in the proof. This is a report on my work in progress.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. The Seductions of Quantification: The Politics of Measuring Human Rights and Gender Violence
DESCRIPTION:An intense preoccupation with numbers is sweeping the worlds of international and domestic governance\, based on the idea that political decisions must be made on the basis of objective quantitative data. Using examples from the measurement of gender violence and human rights compliance\, this talk argues that despite the value of quantitative data and indicators\, they are produced within particular political contexts and cultural frameworks and categories. Indicators promise to provide objective information as the basis for governance\, but my ethnographic examination of the production and use of indicators shows that they should be understood as political and cultural artifacts as well.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Tony Lewis\, author of \"Slugg\"\, speaks in the RC
DESCRIPTION:\"Slugg: A Boy's Life in the Age of Mass Incarceration\" is a blueprint for survival and a demonstration of the power of love\, sacrifice\, and service. The son of a Kingpin and the prince of a close-knit crime family\, Tony Lewis Jr.'s life took a dramatic turn after his father's arrest in 1989. Washington D.C. stood as the murder capital of the country and Lewis was cast into the heart of the struggle\, from a life of stability and riches to one of chaos and poverty. How does one make it in America\, battling the breakdown of families\, the plague of premature death and the hopelessness of being reviled\, isolated\, and forgotten? Tony Lewis' astonishing journey answers these questions and offers\, for the first time\, a close look at the familial residue of America's historic program of mass incarceration.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition-on-View\, \"Persistent Pasts: The Bicentennial Campus as Archive\"
DESCRIPTION:Combining historical research and analysis from the students in Sarah Rovang’s “The Curated Campus” graduate seminar and the design output of Steven Mankouche’s “What If” Options Studio\, Persistent Pasts reflects on the University of Michigan’s campus as a repository of memory. As UM celebrates its Bicentennial year\, this exhibition asks how past traditions\, tensions\, and technologies have left material or cultural traces on campus space today. By laying bare rarely examined aspects of the historical university alongside radical designs for an unrealized present\, Persistent Pasts asks us to question entrenched conceptions of what UM should and could be\, architecturally and institutionally. This exhibition is supported in part by a Bicentennial Activity Grant\, co-authored by Claire Zimmerman and Sarah Rovang. \n\nThis exhibition will be on view in the Taubman College Gallery through May 19. The college gallery is open Monday - Friday\, 9am - 5pm. \n\nThere will be an presentation and panel on Friday\, April 7 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by a reception in the college gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nThe rural poor in developing countries\, once economically isolated\, are increasingly being connected to regional markets. Whether these new connections crowd out or encourage educational investment is a central question. We examine the impacts on educational choices of 115\,000 new roads built under India’s flagship road construction program. We find that children stay in school longer and perform better on standard- ized exams. Treatment heterogeneity supports the predictions of a standard human capital investment model: enrollment increases are largest where nearby labor markets offer the highest returns to education and lowest where they imply high opportunity costs of schooling.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | An Act of Imperial Generosity: Remaking the Social Order in first century BCE China
DESCRIPTION:The period of relative stability following the death of Wudi (r. 141-87 BCE) ushered in complex changes to Western Han society\, in China proper as well as in the borderlands. This talk will use an act of generosity of 62 BCE to examine how the social order was rethought and remade during this period. By exempting descendants of noble families of the first century BCE from tax and labor services\, Xuandi (r. 74-48 BCE) helped engineer the constitution of a sub-elite around the capital\, a sub-elite that was linked\, through ties of memory and descent\, to the great noble lineages that arose after the Han founding. \n    \nGriet Vankeerberghen is a historian of the Western and Eastern Han dynasties. An Associate Professor at the Department of History and Classical Studies of McGill University (Montreal\, Canada)\, she graduated from the Catholic University of Louvain in Belgium (1986\, 1990) and of Princeton University (Ph.D.\, 1997). She is author of \"The Huainanzi and Liu An’s Claim to Moral Authority\" (SUNY Press\, 2001)\, and editor\, with Michael Nylan\, of \"Chang’an 26 BCE: An Augustan Age in China\" (University of Washington Press 2014). She has published articles on several Western Han texts and their social\, political and material contexts\, including the Huainanzi\, Shiji\, the \"Four Lost Classics\" and \"Shangshu dazhuan.\" She is currently engaged in a research project on Western Han Chang’an\, supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. With Hans Beck\, she is co-director of the Global Antiquities Research Network (globalantiquities.org). You can reach her at griet.vankeerberghen@mcgill.ca.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Power of Place-Naming: C.C. Little\, Eugenics\, and the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:This roundtable explores the potential renaming of the C.C. Little Building at the University of Michigan. Little was University President from 1925 to 1929. He also was an avowed eugenicist who supported policies such as compulsory sterilization of the “unfit” and immigration restriction. Little was instrumental in organizing the Third Race Betterment Conference held in Battle Creek in 1928. Forty years later\, the U-M regents voted to bestow his name on the East Medical Building as part of a broader effort to recognize previous university presidents. Given Little’s associations with ideas and practices that today are anathema to our values of diversity\, inclusion\, and non-discrimination\, should this building be renamed? Panelists will explore this question in light of recent institutional guidelines for building renaming\, and approaches of other universities facing similar struggles around renaming campus sites. We will consider the social justice rationales for renaming and attendant risks of sanitizing the uglier sides of institutional histories.\n\nFeaturing Matthew Countryman (University of Michigan)\, Kumea Shorter-Gooden (University of Maryland)\, Alexandra Minna Stern (University of Michigan)\, Martin S. Pernick (University of Michigan\, chair)\, and Joshua Hasler (student representative). \n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester event is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Minorities and Philosophy: Frontispiece of the Ledger of Fools: The Radical Potential of Non-Radical Texts in the Early Modern Ottoman Empire
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe separation of science and religion is a common trope in early modern scientific texts. What we do not know is how this argument fared in non-Christian settings. In this talk\, I will be offering a historical exegesis of the Sunni-Ottoman version of the separation argument from 1732\, when a Sunni-Shia war was still raging and a bloody revolt in Istanbul had just been quelled. Ibrahim Müteferrika (1674?-1745)\, a Socinian radical who had converted to Islam and was serving the Ottoman Sultan as printer and geographer\, used three texts with almost no radical potential to level a powerful attack against the Ottoman Empire’s over-Sunnitized culture. He was calling for a complete separation of science from matters of faith\, a sentiment that he shared with some of his Ottoman contemporaries.\n\nMüteferrika called the Baghdadi scholar Nazmizade\, “If there were a ledger of fools\, he would be its frontispiece” (serdefter-i agbiya). In the early eighteenth century\, Nazmizade had written a Sunni history of Baghdad that omitted the efflorescence of Graeco-Arabic philosophy\, and had also prepared a Turkish translation of al-Suyuti’s work on prophetic astronomy\, which proposed a flat earth theory. In the same work\, Müteferrika also invited Sunni scholiasts to abandon the “false” views of Ptolemy. The venue for Müteferrika’s attacks was his “Printer’s Preface” to a fresh edition of Katip Çelebi’s Cosmorama\, a revered seventeenth-century Ottoman geographical masterpiece. While making his case for separating science from the Sunni faith\, Müteferrika invoked one of the most underutilized passages in the Incoherence of the Philosophers\, where Ghazali advocated that the pious should abstain from foolishly contesting the claims of philosophy. Müteferrika also drew heavily on Edmond Pourchot’s Foundations of Philosophy\, a heavily censored Cartesian textbook that was the product of the Catholic (Counter)Reformation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Symmetry\, Topology\, and Classifying Quantum \"Stuff\"
DESCRIPTION:Over the past several decades\, topology has emerged as an important part of how we understand materials in the quantum regime\, allowing us to identify a new type of phase of matter known as a topologically ordered phase. More recently we have understood that symmetry can act in topologically ordered systems in a way that is quite different from its effect in conventional systems. I will review how topology entered our understanding of quantum matter\, and how symmetry acts differently in some of these systems. This will allow us to explore new possibilities for quantum materials with strong inter-particle interactions.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Evolution & Human Adaptations Program (EHAP) Winter Speaker Series:  “The Addictionomics of Self-Control”
DESCRIPTION:Speaking as part of the series “Excessive Appetites: Food\, Drugs\, and Money\" co-sponsored by the Evolutionary Human Adaptations Program and Psychiatry Department.\n\nTemporal Discounting\, the decline in value of a reinforcer as a function of delay\, is closely related to both the phenotype of addiction and drug valuation. Longer temporal windows are important in valuing lower intensity\, and often variable\, prosocial reinforcers. Shorter temporal windows are important in valuing brief\, intense\, reliable reinforcers such as drugs and lead to a decline in the value of prosocial reinforcers. Using episodic future thinking and narrative theory and methods\, we have modified delay discounting. The findings support that temporal window is inversely related to drug valuation\, identify temporal discounting as a novel target for addiction intervention\, and demonstrate the utility of narratives to modify future thinking.

DESCRIPTION:The moduli space for elliptic curves (or Abelian varieties) is a complex manifold which admits complex conjugation.  The \"real locus\" turns out to be the moduli space for \"real\" elliptic curves (or \"real\" abelian varieties).

For this class\, at least\, there is a very interesting way to answer this question.\n\nThis talk represents joint work with Yung-sheng Tai\, Haverford College.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Erb Institute Purpose to Impact Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Kolbert traveled from Alaska to Greenland\, and visited top scientists\, to get to the heart of the debate over global warming. Growing out of a groundbreaking three-part series in The New Yorker (which won the 2005 National Magazine Award in the category Public Interest)\, Field Notes from a Catastrophe: Man\, Nature\, and Climate Change brings the environment into the consciousness of the American people and asks what\, if anything\, can be done\, and how we can save our planet. She explains the science and the studies\, draws frightening parallels to lost ancient civilizations\, unpacks the politics\, and presents the personal tales of those who are being affected most—the people who make their homes near the poles and\, in an eerie foreshadowing\, are watching their worlds disappear. Field Notes from a Catastrophe: Man\, Nature\, and Climate Change was chosen as one of the 100 Notable Books of the Year (2006) by The New York Times Book Review.  Her most recent book\, The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History\, a book about mass extinctions that  weaves intellectual and natural history with reporting in the field\, was a New York Times 2014 Top Ten Best Book of the Year and is number one on the Guardian's list of the 100 Best Nonfiction Books of all time.  The Sixth Extinction also won the 2015 Pulitzer Prize in the General Nonfiction category\, and was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle awards for the best books of 2014. As with Field Notes from a Catastrophe\, The Sixth Extinction began as an article in The New Yorker.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS): How Many Friends Do You Have? An Empirical Investigation into Censoring-Induced Bias in Social Network Data
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nIn collecting data on network connections\, a common practice is to prompt respondents to name up to a certain number of network links\, potentially leading to censoring. This censored data is then used to estimate parameters of peer effects models in a wide variety of economic applications. In this paper\, I first provide an analytic form of the bias induced by this practice\, showing that this bias decreases as the number of observed links increases. I then conduct a series of Monte Carlo experiments to demonstrate the magnitude of the bias\, providing suggestive evidence that the it may be substantively meaningful. Using network data from Add Health\, I show that different censoring rules induce substantially different estimates of peer-effects parameters. After documenting the possible bias\, I propose a number of strategies for researchers working with censored network data. These findings and proposed solutions have potentially wide-ranging applications to research on peer effects through networks as well as the practice of collecting network data.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition-on-View\, \"Persistent Pasts: The Bicentennial Campus as Archive\"
DESCRIPTION:Combining historical research and analysis from the students in Sarah Rovang’s “The Curated Campus” graduate seminar and the design output of Steven Mankouche’s “What If” Options Studio\, Persistent Pasts reflects on the University of Michigan’s campus as a repository of memory. As UM celebrates its Bicentennial year\, this exhibition asks how past traditions\, tensions\, and technologies have left material or cultural traces on campus space today. By laying bare rarely examined aspects of the historical university alongside radical designs for an unrealized present\, Persistent Pasts asks us to question entrenched conceptions of what UM should and could be\, architecturally and institutionally. This exhibition is supported in part by a Bicentennial Activity Grant\, co-authored by Claire Zimmerman and Sarah Rovang. \n\nThis exhibition will be on view in the Taubman College Gallery through May 19. The college gallery is open Monday - Friday\, 9am - 5pm. \n\nThere will be an presentation and panel on Friday\, April 7 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by a reception in the college gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:N Investors trade in a single risky asset over a finite time horizon. Trades are executed at prices observed by all investors. While no investor knows the true dynamics of the execution price process\, each investor has developed his own model to forecast its evolution. Every investor updates his views on the realized values of his model's random parameters via filtering\; however\, the investors cannot alter the general form of their models. Each investor selects an adapted trading strategy in a suitable class in order to maximize his own objective function according to his beliefs. We show that singularities can occur in the execution price under certain conditions. Intuitively\, our key examples can be summarized as follows: (1) A sufficiently gullible investor planning his trades using a sufficiently inaccurate model for a sufficiently long period of time can blow up the market. (2) A sufficient number of sufficiently gullible investors trading for a sufficiently long period of time can blow up the market\, regardless of the distribution of initial bullish/bearish outlooks\, initial long/short positions\, or plans for overall accumulation/liquidation.\n\nJoint work with Erhan Bayraktar.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2017 Aiton Lecture. South American Newspapers in the Era of Submarine Cables
DESCRIPTION:This talk examines newspapers in late nineteenth-century Buenos Aires in order to analyze the effects of the submarine telegraph cable. After a brief description of the cable's installation\, it traces how international news was circulated\, focusing particularly on the role of Havas\, the first European press agency to provide such news to South America. The analysis focuses on two dimensions of the submarine cable's effect: changes in the spatial breadth of news coverage\, and the acceleration of news circulation. The talk argues that the incorporation of the press into the submarine cable network was part of a long process that introduced extremely fragmented representation of the world and placed new reading demands on South American news consumers.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, we investigate the sensitivity of optimal trading strategies and consumption streams with respect to the current level of wealth. It turns out that both sensitivities can be expressed via the so-called risk tolerance process. They appear quite naturally in various expansions of portfolio optimisation problems. Existence and several dynamic characterisations are established in a general semimartingale setting\, building on earlier results of Kramkov and Sirbu (2006\, 2007). \n\nThe talk is based on joint work with Jan Kallsen and Johannes Muhle-Karbe.\n Speaker(s): Christoph Czichowsky (London School of Economics)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macroeconomics: Identifying ambiguity shocks in business cycle models using survey data
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nWe develop a framework to analyze economies with agents facing time-varying concerns for model misspecification. These concerns lead agents to interpret economic outcomes and make decisions through the lens of a pessimistically biased ‘worst-case’ model. We combine survey data and implied theoretical restrictions on the relative magnitudes and comovement of forecast biases across macroeconomic variables to identify ambiguity shocks as exogenous fluctuations in the worst-case model. Our solution method delivers tractable linear approximations that preserve the effects of time-varying ambiguity concerns and permit estimation using standard Bayesian techniques. Applying our framework to an estimated New-Keynesian business cycle model with frictional labor markets\, we find that ambiguity shocks explain a substantial portion of the variation in labor market quantities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Romance Creoles are Not Bastard Tongues\; they are Legitimate Offspring of their Lexifiers!
DESCRIPTION:Focusing on French creoles\, Professor Mufwene shows that the Romance creoles are new Romance vernaculars that diverge from their lexifiers in ways similar to the divergence of the latter from Vulgar Latin. In some ways\, the creoles are less divergent from their nonstandard lexifiers than the traditional Romance languages are from theirs\, prompting us to factor in the significance of layers of language contact (during their longer history) in shaping the structures of neo-Latin vernaculars in Europe. Their non-rectilinear and non-unilineal evolutions also remind us of the competition that obtained among the numerous neo-Latin vernaculars within their national borders and the particular role of academies in aspiring at linguistic unity and artificially influencing their evolution.\n\nSalikoko Mufwene is the Frank J. McLoraine Distinguished Service Professor of Linguistics and the College at the University of Chicago.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Romance Creoles are Not Bastard Tongues\; they are Legitimate Offspring of their Lexifiers!
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nIt has become both elusive and illusive to characterize creole vernaculars as unique based on their structures or on the nature and/or role of language contact in their emergence. If anything\, their emergence is telling us loud and clear how inadequately genetic linguistics has overlooked population movements and language contact as actuators of systemic changes and language speciation. It has not underscored (sufficiently) the significance of substrate influence\, systemic hybridization\, and typological realignment in language speciation. Focusing on French creoles\, I show that the Romance creoles are new Romance vernaculars that diverge from their lexifiers in ways similar to the divergence of the latter from Vulgar Latin. In some ways\, the creoles are less divergent from their nonstandard lexifiers than the traditional Romance languages are from theirs\, prompting us to factor in the significance of layers of language contact (during their longer history) in shaping the structures of neo-Latin vernaculars in Europe. Their non-rectilinear and non-unilineal evolutions also remind us of the competition that obtained among the numerous neo-Latin vernaculars within their national borders and the particular role of academies in aspiring at linguistic unity and artificially influencing their evolution. Otherwise\, creole vernaculars should help us better understand how the Romance languages have evolved! And the ultimate conclusion is that creole vernaculars are far from being “bastard tongues.”

SUMMARY:Other:Author's Forum Presents: \"Thinking Sex with the Early Moderns\,\" A conversation with Valerie Traub and Helmut Puff
DESCRIPTION:U-M English Professor Valerie Traub reads from her book \"Thinking Sex with the Early Moderns\,\" followed by a discussion with U-M Professor Helmut Puff\, Q & A\, and book signing.\n\nAbout the book: What do we know about early modern sex? And how do we know it? How\, when\, and why does sex become history? In Thinking Sex with the Early Moderns\, Valerie Traub addresses these questions and\, in doing so\, reorients the ways in which historians and literary critics\, feminists and queer theorists approach sexuality and its history. Her answers offer interdisciplinary strategies for confronting the difficulties of making sexual knowledge.\n\nBased on the premise that producing sexual knowledge is difficult because sex itself is often inscrutable\, Thinking Sex with the Early Moderns leverages the notions of opacity and impasse to explore barriers to knowledge about sex in the past. Traub argues that the obstacles in making sexual history can illuminate the difficulty of knowing sexuality. She also argues that these impediments themselves can be adopted as a guiding principle of historiography: sex may be good to think with\, not because it permits us access but because it doesn't.

Morgan’s music videos have accumulated more than 45 million views (and climbing). Cameroon-born singer-songwriter Andy Allo\, an artist making her way with a sound that is uniquely hers\, is special guest.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Blossom by Blossom: Elvish Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:Gabrielle Soltis creates works from the Gyldenstjerne Porcelain Company lineage. The story goes that sometime in the early 1700s\, a young Danish nobleman by the name of Einar Gyldenstjerne fell in love and married an Elvish woman named Gwyneira (surname unknown) who shared the family recipe for how to create hard-paste porcelain. The first items produced by the company are dated to 1715. Soltis’ porcelain flowers in this tradition are assembled meticulously petal by petal. She studied ceramics at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit\, Michigan and is interested in European history and fiction.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition-on-View\, \"Persistent Pasts: The Bicentennial Campus as Archive\"
DESCRIPTION:Combining historical research and analysis from the students in Sarah Rovang’s “The Curated Campus” graduate seminar and the design output of Steven Mankouche’s “What If” Options Studio\, Persistent Pasts reflects on the University of Michigan’s campus as a repository of memory. As UM celebrates its Bicentennial year\, this exhibition asks how past traditions\, tensions\, and technologies have left material or cultural traces on campus space today. By laying bare rarely examined aspects of the historical university alongside radical designs for an unrealized present\, Persistent Pasts asks us to question entrenched conceptions of what UM should and could be\, architecturally and institutionally. This exhibition is supported in part by a Bicentennial Activity Grant\, co-authored by Claire Zimmerman and Sarah Rovang. \n\nThis exhibition will be on view in the Taubman College Gallery through May 19. The college gallery is open Monday - Friday\, 9am - 5pm. \n\nThere will be an presentation and panel on Friday\, April 7 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by a reception in the college gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

Her research is broadly focused on issues of race\, culture\, and educational equity in P-12 and higher education settings. Dr. Carter Andrews is a former industrial engineer\, kindergarten teacher\, and high school math teacher\, with experience in urban\, suburban\, and independent schools.\n\nDr. Carter Andrews explores the elusive quest for equitable education for African Americans in the United States. She uses critical race theory as an analytical framework for examining the enduring inequitable access to educational opportunities that African Americans have experienced across time and learning spaces. Dr. Carter Andrews challenges us to consider what is required to ensure academic excellence for African American students in a neoliberal\, anti-Black \nsociopolitical climate.       \n\nThis is the second of a six-lecture series. The subject is The African American  Experience.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Colonization\, Globalization\, and the Emergence of Creoles and Pidgins
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nContrary to the received position\, pidgins appear to have emerged later than creoles\, or at best around the same time\, definitely not earlier. I adduce various evidence to support my position\, inter alia\, from the earliest attestations of the words creole and pidgin\, the kinds of interactions that Europeans and non-Europeans held in the relevant contact settings (which are in geographic complementary distribution to each other)\, and the critical role that interpreters (the unsung heroes of colonization) played in the trade colonies where pidgins eventually emerged. Even the exploitation colonization of Africa depended for the longest on interpreters cum colonial auxiliaries. The relevant history of trade colonization suggests that the indigenous rulers on the coast of Africa\, South Asia\, China\, and the Pacific islands did not trade with European companies in pidgins but in closer approximations of the European languages spoken by the interpreters\, whose critical role as “go-betweens” or “intermediaries” turned them into important power brokers all the way into the exploitation colonization of the relevant territories in the 19th century\, with the exception of China. The available historical evidence suggests that pidgins lexified by European languages emerged later and\, like related creoles\, by basilectalization\, diverging farther away from their lexifiers. Once we factor in the fact that present “expanded pidgins” (e.g.\, Tok Pisin and Nigerian Pidgin English) remain in geographic complementary distribution with creoles\, we should give up the myth that the creoles evolved from erstwhile pidgins. Note that I don’t consider “expanded pidgins” to be creoles.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Densifying Networks
DESCRIPTION:We discuss the unusual properties of networks that grow by either: (a) redirection or (b) node duplication.  The former leads to unusual network properties when the redirection probability equals 1.  For example\, the number of nodes of degree greater than 1 scales slower than linearly in the total number of nodes N.  In the latter case\, a new node attaches to a randomly selected target node and also to each of its neighbors with probability p.  The resulting network is sparse for p < 1/2 and dense (average degree increasing with number of nodes N) for p ≥ 1/2. The dense regime is especially rich.  Individual network realizations are not self-averaging.  There is also an infinite sequence of structural anomalies at p = 2/3\, 3/4\, 4/5\, etc.\, where the N dependences of the number of triangles (3-cliques)\, 4-cliques\, undergo phase transitions. When linking to second neighbors of the target can occur\, the probability that the resulting graph is complete as N → ∞.  This is collaborative work with U. Bhat\, P.L. Krapivsky\, and R. Lambiotte.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2017 MaryFran Sowers Memorial Lecture: Australian Women's Healthy Aging Project 1990 to 2020
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe Australian Women's Healthy Aging Project (WHAP) cohort was established to examine women’s health from midlife (45-55 years) before the menopausal transition and into aging. In 1990/91\, 2001 women living in the Melbourne metropolitan area were randomly selected\, and 779 met the entry criteria for the longitudinal follow-up (aged 45–55 years\, menstruating\, having a uterus and at least one ovary and not taking hormone therapy). Of these\, 438 agreed to be seen annually across the menopausal transition from 1992 to 1999. Longitudinal prospective follow-up since 2000 has continued intermittently (2002/03\, 2004/05\, 2012/13\, 2014/15). Data collection has included fasting biomarkers\, clinical assessment\, lifestyle and quality of life data\, physical measures and validated questionnaire data. Participants have consented to data linkage and\, to date\, mammogram and BioGrid data have been accessed. Biobank storage including serum\, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) storage and PAXgene tubes are maintained.  The WHAP has contributed to over 200 publications in a variety of areas\, including: health and wellbeing\; mental and cognitive health\; bone health\; lifestyle\, vascular risk and prevention\; women’s health and hormonal transition\; and cross-cultural research. With all participants now aged over 70 years\, the cohort is ideally placed to answer key questions of healthy aging in women. Ongoing follow-up into older ages for this long-running cohort will enable the association between mid to late-life factors and healthy aging to be determined. This is particularly valuable for the examination of chronic diseases which have a 20–30 year prodrome and to provide knowledge on multiple morbidities. \n\nBrief Bio:\nAssociate Professor Cassandra is currently the Director of the Healthy Aging Program\, Associate Professor at the University of Melbourne and Professor at Institute for Health and Aging\, Australian Catholic University. She led the research program in Neurodegenerative Diseases\, Mental Disorders and Brain Health at the Australian Commonwealth Science and Industry Organization (CSIRO) and helped establish and served on the steering committees of several major Australian collaborative studies (ASPREE\, START and AIBL)\, sat on the executive scientific board of the Australian Imaging Biomarker and Lifestyle study of aging (AIBL) from 2008 to 2014\, and was Inaugural Chair of the Vascular Stream. She served on the board of executive directors for the Western Health Service Network\, employed by the Victorian Minister for Health. In this role\, she was Chair of both the Quality and Safety and the Education and Research Board sub-committees. Dr. Szoeke is a practicing physician in internal medicine with sub-specialization in neurology. In addition to her medical qualifications she has an honors degree in Genetics and Pharmacology\, and completed her PhD thesis in Epidemiology with postdoctoral training conducted between Stanford University and Duke University focused on Public Health and Policy. She has been the recipient of numerous national and international awards for her research work.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Michigan Engineering Design Expo
DESCRIPTION:See how Michigan Engineering students are designing solutions to our world's challenges.\n\nThe College of Engineering Design Expo is held twice a year to provide a public forum for engineering students to demonstrate applications of their studies to real-life needs. Students gain valuable experience by presenting their work.\n\nThrough this venue\, the greater University community and general public has the opportunity to learn how Michigan's students are contributing in significant ways to solving major technology challenges across various disciplines.\n\nThese student projects consist of internal University of Michigan projects\, non-profit community projects and industry-sponsored projects. Most of these projects are part of Senior Design Project Courses\, but other project groups are welcome and encouraged to participate.\n\nThe goal of the Undergraduate Engineering Office is to have participation from all departments within the College of Engineering (and eventually across university schools and colleges) to promote cross-disciplinary cooperation as well as high-school outreach.\n\nIndustry sponsors\, have been a large part of promoting this within the college through sponsorship of projects and as well as monetary support of the event itself.\n\nThe Winter 2017 Design Expo is sponsored by Amway.\n\nThis event is held in multiple North Campus locations: including the Duderstadt Center\, Bob & Betty Beyster Building\, Pierpont Commons\, EECS Building\, and Chrysler Center.\n\nFor more information\, contact Payal Agarwal in the Multidisciplinary Design Program office at payalag@umich.edu or (734) 763-0818.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Winds of Change – Funerary practices at the dawn of Late Bronze Age in Southeast Hungary
DESCRIPTION:The transition from Middle to Late Bronze Age (~1500-1300 BC) in the Carpathian Basin encompassed a broad range of changes in material culture\, settlement\, and social organization. This transition was traditionally seen as a short\, war-ridden horizon reflecting the arrival of the Tumulus culture population. Recent research\, however\, emphasizes the complexity of these transformations\, and suggests a longer\, less abrupt transition\, in which existing Middle Bronze Age populations play a significant role in the formation of Late Bronze Age societies. Excavations in the early 1960s unearthed over 600 Bronze Age burials at the site of Tápé –Széntéglaégető. The cemetery is situated at the border zone of earlier Middle Bronze Age cultural groups and dates to the transitional phase. Considering its geographic location and chronological position\, the study of this cemetery provides an outstanding opportunity to understand how the interaction between different cultural groups shaped the expression of social identity and how social practices changed at the dawn of a new social\, political era. This presentation summarizes the first results of my analysis of the cemetery population\, focusing on understanding variation in the use of ornaments among different gender and age groups\, and comparing the results to the preceding Maros cultural practices.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Diversity Research Symposium:  Culturally Grounded Academic Interventions that Build on The Strengths of Indigenous Students
DESCRIPTION:The culture cycle reveals that individuals are both a product of and play an important role in creating and adapting to the cultures they inhabit.  For many Indigenous students\, the culture of educational institutions in the U.S.\, reflect a set of ideas and practices about what it means to be a \"good\" student\, the purpose of education\, and the nature of the relationship between teachers and students that are experienced as a cultural mismatch between their model of self and the model prevalent in mainstream educational contexts.  The first set of studies empirically tests these cultural mismatches\, whereas the second set of studies builds on the strengths of Indigenous students to alleviate these mismatches and to positively influence motivation and academic performance.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Arithmetic
DESCRIPTION:Floor functions appear in number theory\, e.g. in expressions for the Riemann zeta function and in some proofs of quadratic reciprocity. Often these floor functions show up with different \"dilation factors\"\, so it is essential to understand how such dilated floor functions interact with one another. In this talk I will answer the question: when is the commutator of two dilated floor functions identically non-negative? \n\nNo background will be assumed. This work is joint with Jeff Lagarias and Takumi Murayama. Speaker(s): Harry Richman (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:J. L. Krivine's theorem states that for every Banach space X with a basis\, there exists a p in [1\, infinity] such that l_p is finitely block represented in X. The set of all such p's is called the Krivine set of X. As it was proved by H.P. Rosenthal\, this set is stabilized on some block subspace Y of X\, i.e. the Krivine set of Y and the corresponding one of any of its further block subspaces coincide. The form of such a stabilized Krivine set has been a subject of study\, since Rosenthal asked whether it always had to be a singleton. This question was answered negatively by E. Odell and Th. Schlumprecht by constructing a space having [1\, infinity] as its stabilized Krivine set. \n\nThe question that followed was if such a stabilized Krivine set had to be an interval\, which was asked by P. Habala and N. Tomczak-Jaegermann as well as by E. Odell. We answer this question in the negative direction by constructing\, for every subset F of [1\,infinity] which is either finite or consists of an increasing sequence and its limit\, a reflexive Banach space X with an unconditional basis such that for every infinite dimensional block subspace Y of X\, the Krivine set of Y is precisely F.\n\nThis construction also addresses some open problems concerning spreading models. \n\nThis is joint work with K. Beanland and D. Freeman. Speaker(s): Pavlos Motakis (Texas A&M University)

SUMMARY:Other:Development of New Catalysts and Conjunctive Strategies for Stereoselective Organic Synthesis
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will focus on our recent progress in developing new catalysts and strategies for chemical synthesis.  Our group has a long-term interest in developing catalyst-controlled nucleophile addition processes that enable new approaches to stereoselective C–C bond construction.  In this regard\, the development of catalytic enantioselective reactions of boron-stabilized alkylmetals will be discussed.  In addition\, the design and development of electrophilic carbon(0) ligated rhodium(I) complexes for catalytic site- and enantioselective hydrofunctionalizations of olefins will be presented.\nSimon Meek (University of North Carolina)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Differential Equations
DESCRIPTION:In this talk we show how certain well-posedness results that are not available using only deterministic techniques (eg. Fourier and harmonic analysis) can be obtained when introducing randomization in the set of initial data and using powerful but still classical tools from probability as well. These ideas go back to seminal  work by J. Bourgain on the invariance of Gibbs measures associated to dispersive PDE.  We will first explain some of these ideas and review some recent probabilistic well-posedness results for NLS. We will then describe recent work of myself joint with Chanillo\, Czubak\, Mendelson and Staffilani in which we treat probabilistic well-posedness of a geometric wave equation with randomized supercritical data. If time permits\, we will  discuss a  work in progress about non-equilibrium invariant measures for resonant NLS (joint with Hani\, Mattingly\, Rey-Bellet and Staffilani).\n Speaker(s): Andrea Nahmod (UMASS\, Amherst)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Donia Human Rights Center Lecture: Are Refugees a Security Risk? Using National Security and Human Rights Values to Protect Refugees and the Homeland
DESCRIPTION:We are in the midst of the biggest refugee crisis since World War II. And yet refugees that hope to look to the United States for safe haven are encountering a political discourse that refers to walls\, travel bans\, and registries that invoke a bygone era in American history. Much of this discourse is animated by the understandable desire to make the homeland safe as possible. In doing so\, have we abandoned our democratic principles or are we simply embracing a new norm that necessitates more vigilance? Or\, perhaps\, a binary narrative can and should give way to one that seeks to interlace fundamental human rights principles with national security safeguards. If such a moderated path exists\, what does it look like and how do we find it? \n    \nHardy Vieux\, is the legal direct of the Human Rights First. He leads and oversees management of the organization’s legal initiatives—including its pro bono legal representation\, amicus brief\, and legal outreach efforts. Hardy manages Human Rights First’s refugee representation work\, which pairs lawyers at the nation’s top law firms with indigent refugees in need of counsel. In 2014\, Hardy served as a policy fellow in the Middle East\, where he worked at Save the Children International in Amman\, Jordan. There\, he handled child protection policy issues impacting Syrian refugee children living in Jordan. Prior to living in the Middle East\, Hardy was in private legal practice in Washington\, D.C. for over ten years. Hardy Vieux holds MPP/JD from University of Michigan Law School and Ford School of Public Policy\, and a BA from Duke University. \n    \nThis winter\, Hardy Vieux is the Harry A. and Margaret D. Towsley Foundation Policymaker in Residence\, at the U-M’s Ford School of Public Policy and teaching the class titled “The Role of Non-Governmental Organizations in Policy Formation.”

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nIn October 2010\, the state government of Andhra Pradesh\, India issued an emergency ordinance\, bringing microfinance activities in the state to a complete halt and causing a nation-wide shock to the liquidity of lenders\, especially those lenders with loans in the affected state. We use this massive dislocation in the microfinance market to identify the causal impacts of a reduction in credit supply on consumption\, entrepreneurship\, and employment in general equilibrium. Using a proprietary\, hand-collected district-level data set from 27 separate\, for-profit microlenders matched with household data from the National Sample Survey\, we find that district-level reductions in credit supply are associated with significant decreases in casual daily wages\, household wage earnings and consumption. Moreover\, we find significant heterogeneity by household landholdings\, consistent with an equilibrium model in which medium-wealth households scale back their businesses and landless households are hit by a fall in the wage.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Special Seminar: Coping with environmental change: integrating behavior and mechanism
DESCRIPTION:If organisms are to persist in the face of climate change\, they must be able to deal not only with increasing temperatures\, but also with greater climatic variation. I will discuss how living in social groups allows animals to cope with environmental uncertainty. Using comparative data across all birds\, as well as empirical data from one species of cooperative breeder\, I will demonstrate the many ways that environmental variation influences social living as well as the fitness benefits of being social. I will then highlight the physiological\, epigenetic\, and genetic responses that animals use to cope with naturally variable environments. Specifically\, I will show how different components of the vertebrate stress response are shaped by different timescales of environmental variation\, how environmental conditions during development influence DNA methylation of the stress hormone receptor\, and how environmental change more broadly influences the evolution of that receptor. Together\, these studies will illustrate the many ways that animals respond to and cope with environmental change.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/eqgU4K3jh-g

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: On Futures\, Past and Present
DESCRIPTION:Amid economic turbulence\, environmental disaster\, and political shocks\, some observers today perceive a crisis of futurity\, manifested in an inability to imagine better times to come\, in a mythic embroidery of old times\, or in fears of bygone calamities now returned to haunt the world. Under such conditions\, the horizon of expectation and hope may darken\, making it ever more difficult to mobilize effectively for change or even construct meaningful lives. \n\nOn Thursday\, two eminent and deeply engaged scholars\, historian Robin Blackburn and philosopher Nancy Fraser\, will address the problem of politics and vision in our time as well as present prospects for reopening the future. \n\nOn Friday\, University of Michigan faculty Lisa Disch (Political Science) and Kali Israel (History) will respond and join Blackburn and Fraser for discussion.\n\nRobin Blackburn teaches at the Graduate Faculty of the New School University\, New York\, and in the Sociology Department of the University of Essex. The former editor of New Left Review\, he is the author of Banking on Death—Or\, Investing in Life: The History and Future of Pensions\, The Making of New World Slavery and The Overthrow of Colonial Slavery\, and Age Shock: How Finance Is Failing Us.\n\nNancy Fraser is Henry A. & Louise Loeb Professor of Political & Social Science at The New School for Social Research\, Einstein Fellow of the city of Berlin\, and holder of the “Global Justice” Chair at the Collège d’études mondiales in Paris. Her books include Redistribution or Recognition\, Adding Insult to Injury\, Scales of Justice\, Justice Interruptus\, and Unruly Practices.\n\nFree and open to the public. \n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

The sessions are 30 minutes long\, flexible\, and free.\n\nThe sessions are led by a group of students and staff who have received training to lead the 30 minute sessions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Roland Barthes: The Image and the Imaginary
DESCRIPTION:In his semiotic critique of culture\, Roland Barthes was dealing with signs\, but also with images. This paper discusses two different aspects of image in his work\, the visual and the “invisible\,” the latter producing the category of the imaginary. The paper argues that the image is highly ambivalent for Barthes: not simply a field to explore\, it is also a danger to escape\, an adversary against which to fight\, and a beloved object to preserve.\n\nSergey Zenkin is a research professor at the Russian State University for the Humanities (RGGU) in Moscow. A specialist in French literature\, theory of literature and the history of ideas\, he has written several monographs including\, most recently\, The Experience of Relativity: French Romanticism and the Idea of Culture (in French\, 2011)\, The Non-Divine Sacred (in Russian\, 2012)\, and Writings on Theory (in Russian\, 2012).\n\nFor further questions\, please contact Olga Maiorova at maiorova@umich.edu.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please email slavic@umich.edu or call 734-764-5355 by 4/9/2017.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition-on-View\, \"Persistent Pasts: The Bicentennial Campus as Archive\"
DESCRIPTION:Combining historical research and analysis from the students in Sarah Rovang’s “The Curated Campus” graduate seminar and the design output of Steven Mankouche’s “What If” Options Studio\, Persistent Pasts reflects on the University of Michigan’s campus as a repository of memory. As UM celebrates its Bicentennial year\, this exhibition asks how past traditions\, tensions\, and technologies have left material or cultural traces on campus space today. By laying bare rarely examined aspects of the historical university alongside radical designs for an unrealized present\, Persistent Pasts asks us to question entrenched conceptions of what UM should and could be\, architecturally and institutionally. This exhibition is supported in part by a Bicentennial Activity Grant\, co-authored by Claire Zimmerman and Sarah Rovang. \n\nThis exhibition will be on view in the Taubman College Gallery through May 19. The college gallery is open Monday - Friday\, 9am - 5pm. \n\nThere will be an presentation and panel on Friday\, April 7 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by a reception in the college gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EIHS Symposium: Horizons of Expectation Today
DESCRIPTION:Amid economic turbulence\, environmental disaster\, and political shocks\, some observers today perceive a crisis of futurity\, manifested in an inability to imagine better times to come\, in a mythic embroidery of old times\, or in fears of bygone calamities now returned to haunt the world. Under such conditions\, the horizon of expectation and hope may darken\, making it ever more difficult to mobilize effectively for change or even construct meaningful lives. \n\nOn Thursday\, two eminent and deeply engaged scholars\, historian Robin Blackburn and philosopher Nancy Fraser\, will address the problem of politics and vision in our time as well as present prospects for reopening the future. \n\nOn Friday\, University of Michigan faculty Lisa Disch (Political Science) and Kali Israel (History) will respond and join Blackburn and Fraser for discussion.\n\nFree and open to the public.\n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Social Psychology Alumni Speaker
DESCRIPTION:Presentation Title:\nEmbodied mental procedures: The case of cleansing as a procedure of separation\n\nResearch Summary:\nSpike is interested in how human beings accomplish abstract thinking\, especially abstract thought that matters in social life (e.g.\, morality\, suspicion\, love). He investigates how low-level bodily processes help construct and are in turn influenced by higher-level mental processes\, often leading to quirky effects (e.g.\, physical cleansing helps people move on by “wiping the slate clean”\; when people “smell something fishy\,” they become suspicious and invest less money in a trust-dependent economic game).\nIn terms of theoretical goals\, he explores how the mind interacts with the body through multiple mechanisms\; why mind-body relations are often predicted by the metaphors we use\; when and how metaphors influence judgments\, feelings\, and behaviors\; what cognitive principles govern embodied effects\; and how they vary by experimental\, social\, and cultural contexts.\nHis work has been published in leading journals such as Science\, Psychological Bulletin\, Psychological Science\, Journal of Experimental Psychology: General\, and Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. He received the 2010 Early Graduate Student Researcher Award by the American Psychological Association and the 2016 Rising Star designation by the Association for Psychological Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Presentation:P&SC Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Intimate partner violence\, stigma\, and health: Elucidating critical connections\n\nIntimate partner violence (IPV) is a serious public health concern that affects approximately one in three women and one in four men in their lifetime\; this violence can be physical\, sexual\, or psychological. A large body of literature has documented the association between IPV and adverse mental and sexual health outcomes\; however\, very few studies have conceptualized or empirically tested how the experience of IPV-related stigma influences these relationships. The stigma associated with IPV is often overlooked as an important social factor that may have detrimental effects on the mental and sexual health of people who experience IPV. In this talk\, I will highlight the Intimate Partner Violence Stigmatization Model (Overstreet &amp\; Quinn\, 2013) and I will discuss two empirical studies that test this model.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:GDS Colloquium Series: Waiting in the Antechamber
DESCRIPTION:For all too long\, waiting has lingered below the threshold of our historical perception. Despite the fact that “waiting is … a key dimension of modernity\,” as Craig Jeffrey claims\, it “is a temporal region hardly mapped and badly documented” (Harold Schweizer). The moment has come to delve into how those who waited increased their awareness of time as well as of themselves and their place in the world. By bringing waiting in history to the fore\, this proect seeks to lead the debate on time away from the existential themes that have dominated its exploration. This first foray into this new terrain is therefore less interested in the final truths about time’s essence than in the temporal poetics of the everyday. \n\nFree and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:The boundary rigidity problem consist of recovering a Riemannian metric in a domain\, up to an isometry\, from the distance between boundary points. We show that in dimensions three and higher\, knowing the distance near a fixed strictly convex boundary point allows us to reconstruct the metric inside the domain near that point\, and that  this reconstruction is stable. We also prove semi-global and global results under certain convexity conditions. The problem can be reformulated as a recovery of the metric from the arrival times of waves between boundary points\; which is known as travel-time tomography. The interest in this problem is motivated by imaging problems in seismology: to  recover the sub-surface structure of the Earth given travel-times from the propagation of seismic waves. In oil exploration\, the seismic signals are man-made and the problem is local in nature. In particular\, we can recover locally the compressional and the shear wave speeds for the elastic Earth model\, given local information. The talk is based on joint work with Uhlmann (UW) and Vasy (Stanford). Speaker(s): Plamen Stefanov (Purdue University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SoConDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nCreoles are notorious for the extreme variation they display within a single variety and across varieties.  Such variation has been interpreted as symptomatic of alternate grammars punctuating a creole continuum consisting of a basilect\, acrolect and mesolect (Le Page and Tabouret-Keller\, 1985).  However\, I have shown in Baptista (2015) that distinct creole varieties (Santiago and São Vicente) of Cape Verdean Creole that have been traditionally described as basilectal and acrolectal do not uphold such characterization upon closer examination of their grammatical systems and of the speech patterns of individual speakers.  In Baptista (2015)\, a careful analysis of the Santiago and São Vicente varieties of Cape Verdean Creole showed that Santiago for instance which has been typically described as basilectal actually displayed acrolectal features in core domains such as gender agreement and Tense\, Mood and Aspect markers (TMA).  The study of individual speakers also demonstrated that the same speaker may display speech patterns that swing like a pendulum between the acrolect and basilect.  This study brought in plain view the descriptive inadequacy of the labels basilect\, acrolect and mesolect and challenged well-established claims regarding the status of the Santiago and São Vicente on the Cape Verdean Creole continuum.   \n	In light of the inadequacy of the creole continuum\, I propose in this paper an alternative approach to the examination of variation observed in creoles.  The main research questions driving this study are as follows:  Is the variation observed in creoles better accounted for in terms of competing I-grammars that emerge over time? Would this new lens help us attain a higher level of descriptive and explanatory adequacy than the creole continuum provides? \n            In order to fully explore this topic\, I carefully examine synchronic and diachronic data as well as acquisition scenarios by targeting the TMA system of Cape Verdean Creole (CVC) and by comparing the degrees of variation that this particular creole displays at these three levels.  \n            This paper is organized as follows.  Following the introduction\, in the second section\, I lay out the traditional definition of the creole continuum and briefly summarize the arguments I made in Baptista (2015)\, pointing to its limitations and descriptive inadequacy.  In the third section\, I turn to the framework of competing I-grammars which I argue is a more descriptively and explanatorily adequate approach to analyzing the observed variation. I provide a definition of I-language in light of competing I-grammars\, drawing from Lightfoot (2006)\, Yang (2002)\, Obata & Epstein (2015) and Epstein (2016) and show how the approach of competing I-grammars applies to the synchronic study of TMA markers in the creole under investigation.  In the fourth section\, I elaborate on a possible scenario of acquisition of TMA markers in CVC using diachronic texts in support of such scenario and in the fifth section\, I propose a syntactic analysis accounting for their synchronic distribution.  The sixth section summarizes the key findings of this study.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Exploring Climate Change Projections from the Ground Up: How Plants Shape Weather in a High CO2 World
DESCRIPTION:Plants serve as a key link in the global carbon and hydrologic cycles\, regulating earth’s temperature\, humidity\, and atmospheric composition.  In the presence of elevated CO2 concentrations\, plants are expected to respond through increased photosynthesis and reduced stomatal conductance. However\, the impacts of these vegetation changes on regional and global climate are largely unknown.  In this talk\, I’ll use a suite of earth system model experiments to understand and estimate the contribution of CO2-induced vegetation changes to projections of future anthropogenic climate change. I’ll show that a reduction in stomatal conductance is the primary means by which elevated CO2 impacts vegetation’s role as a climate change agent. As stomatal conductance goes down\, vegetation pumps less subsurface water to the boundary layer\, altering energy and moisture fluxes throughout forested regions of the tropics and mid to high latitudes. These flux changes have a substantial impact on the spatial pattern and intensity of rainfall\, as well as the frequency and duration of extreme temperature events. Though there remains considerable uncertainty in the representation of vegetation physiology in climate models\, the results suggest that the response of vegetation to elevated CO2 may be as important as the radiative impact of CO2 in shaping climate change in some forested regions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:\"On the Biosynthetic Mechanism Coupling Cell Growth to Division\"
DESCRIPTION:While cells of a given type span a large range of sizes\, most proteins and mRNA are maintained at constant\, size independent\, concentrations. This raises the question of how cells can achieve size-dependent signals coordinating growth and division. Recently\, we showed that budding yeast size control results from cell size-independent synthesis of the cell cycle inhibitor Whi5 and size-proportional synthesis of the cell cycle activator Cln3. Larger cells have a higher ratio of cell cycle activator to inhibitor\, which triggers division. This raised two key questions: (1) To what extent do individual genes’ expression deviate from constant concentration? (2) What are the molecular mechanisms that determine whether gene expression depends on cell size? To address these questions\, we examined the yeast GFP-fusion library. We identified approximately 200 proteins whose abundance does not scale with cell size. Many of these genes are involved in membrane transport and DNA-templated processes\, which do not scale proportionally with cell size. A targeted analysis of WHI5 and histone genes suggest cells employ both transcriptional control and protein degradation for coordinating gene expression with size. Thus\, our work demonstrates a functional role for differential size-dependency of protein synthesis and gives insights into the underlying molecular mechanisms. We also discuss how these principles can be applied to understanding how growth and division are coupled in mammalian cells.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FAST Lecture | Co-sponsored by CAW (The Collaborative Archaeology Workgroup)
DESCRIPTION:Jordan Dalton\, Doctoral Candidate in Anthropology:\nThe Tricky Thing About Tapia: Understanding Changes to the Settlement Pattern of the Chincha Valley During the Late Horizon (AD 1470-1532) \n\nThis talk will discuss possible changes made to the settlement pattern and urban centers of the Chincha Valley during the Late Horizon (AD1470-1532). The Late Horizon is defined by the presence of the expansionist Inca Empire in the Chincha Valley. From ethnohistoric sources and archaeological research we know that the Inca installed joint rule alongside the local Chincha elites. Under joint rule the Inca carefully developed and established their authority alongside that of the local Chincha. In order to understand the implications of this joint rule for the entire Chincha Valley I will look at settlement patterns for the lower valley and excavation data from the large urban agricultural center Las Huacas. The settlement pattern data for the Chincha Valley while rich\, is restricted by the limited ability of researchers to differentiate between Late Intermediate Period (AD1100-1470) and Late Horizon occupations from the surface. This is a crucial distinction for understanding which changes in settlement pattern occurred during the Late Horizon under Inca occupation and which are the product of local socio-politcal development. I will conclude with a discussion of the organization of Chincha urbanism and highlight future lines of research for understanding how it may or may not have changed under joint rule.  \n\nMartin Menz\, Doctoral Student in Anthropology: \nDomestic Craft Production and Exchange in the Woodland Period Deep South\n\nArchaeological considerations of craft production and specialization in the American Southeast have often focused on elaborate prestige goods crafted from exotic materials. Less frequently studied is the potential for specialized production of mundane household goods. Here I review the evidence for craft production and exchange from Kolomoki\, a large Middle-to-Late Woodland period (A.D. 300-850) village and mound complex in southwestern Georgia\, and attempt to situate it within a series of exchange networks predicated upon periodic ritual gatherings and regional interaction. I argue that periodic convergence at Kolomoki and other mound centers temporarily brought together individuals from various ecological and geological zones\, providing an outlet for craft producers and visitors to exchange raw materials and finished goods.\n\nReception 5:30 PM\, Lecture 6:00 PM. \n\nFAST lectures are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Performance:UMS Presents: Sanam Marvi
DESCRIPTION:With compelling interpretations that draw deeply from one of the world’s great music traditions\, Sanam Marvi is Pakistan’s next inspiring diviner of South Asia’s Sufi texts.\nA vocal warrior for tolerance and peace\, this contemporary daughter of the Sindh province is a brilliant interpreter of South Asia’s spiritual\, folk\, and classical poetry\, with performances that balance immediacy and elegant ornamentation. Like the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan\, Marvi’s devotional joyousness is meditative and trance-inducing one moment and thrillingly ecstatic the next. An in-demand performer too rarely heard outside émigré circles\, she makes her first extended tour to the US.
